We are excited to announce a new educational partnership with Dutch Noorderpoort College to strengthen our capacity in Karamoja regional tourism development through skilling.
Therefore we launched The Karamoja Tourism Academy in 2018. Up to now we happily graduated 45 students in basics in hospitality tour guiding. Today we are proudly announcing a long-term partnership with Noorderpoort College from The Netherlands. They are one of the most respected colleges in the country, offering secondary technical and vocational education including tourism and hospitality.
Together we will develop and test tourism and hospitality-related courses to equip the local community with the skills to benefit from the increasing regional tourism sector.
Hiking Untamed Mountains of Karamoja in Northeastern Uganda – Kara-Tunga is developing a trail for untamed outdoor adventure (hiking, cycling, walking) with authentic cultural experiences through Uganda’s lesser travelled Karamojaland.

The students have concluded 3 months of internship at their workplace and are about to start their exchange internship at a different hotel.
